Education matters most

Of The Morning Call

The future of America is children. Children need to learn, but there are children in America who are not learning what they should. Everyone has rights and we, as children, have the right to a good education. I know very well that there are poor school districts out there, and this simply should not be.

All children should be challenged, and what they learn should not be compromised because of their schools. We need to learn all we can now, so we can be all that we can be later. Schools play an extremely important role here. I believe children should be exposed to many activities. These can help foster various areas of interest. Being in extracurricular activities helps grades, and can provide inspiration to keep grades up, as well. Children also need to feel at ease and happy in their schools. We cannot perform our best in an environment we feel uneasy in.

I know there are many things on the president's mind. However, while he serves in the present, he should remember the future. The future of America rests in his hands.
